1.2 IMPORTANCE / REQUIREMENT OF HRM:


Organizations effectiveness has always been a focal point of interest. But what exactly makes an organization effective? Is it land, buildings, capital, patents or technology? The four factors were considered as very important. But now a days it has become clearly evident that people (Human Resources) in an organization is the most critical asset. Human resources is measured from a number of aspects, an organization. For achievement the need for the policies and sometimes

2.1 INTRODUCTION TO THE INDUSTRY

HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF IKIWL: After independence there is a realization of the need for a planned development of Steel, Iron & other Industries to increase Export capacity in Iron product to foreign countries. It was realized by both State Govt. & Central Govt. for the advancement of Iron Industries. The IDCOL, Industrial Development Corporation of Orissa Ltd., Reflects Orissas determination to accelerate industrial growth sponsored March1962. by the Govt. of Orissa & registered as a Public Limited Company in

magnificent success as entrepreneur & promoter has let to emergence of a huge number of Industrial units in the private sectors.

Development Corporation was established in 1950 & was known as Kalinga Industries Limited and the foundation stone was laid by out former Chief Minister of Orissa Mr. Biju Pattnaik on 3rd January 1959. The total investment in beginning of such organization was Rs.176 lakhs. The IDCOL was incorporated in the year 1962 as a Govt. Company to promote heavy & medium scale industries with in the state of Orissa. Its first step was to take over the Engineering Workshop from Hirakud Dam project during November1962. This was followed by taking over low shaft furnace of Kalinga Industries in the year 1963. After that Kalinga Iron Works is directly managed by IDICOL under the Company Act.1956.

GEOPGRAPHICAL LOCATION: IDCOL Kalinga Iron Works Limited is situated in the midst of the richest Iron Ore deposit of the country in Keonjhar District of Orissa within Municipal area of Barbil town. On 01.04.1963 IDC took over IKIWL from Kalinga Industries. There are two divisions in IKIWL i.e. (a) Spun Pipe Division (b) Pig Iron Division. (a) Spun Pipe Division: The Spun Pipe Plant was set up adjacent to the premises of IKIWL annum. The Unit was gone into commercial production of C.I. Spun Pipe in the year 1982 & in 15.04.1983 the company has got the DGS&D rate contract & in the year 01.04.1990.

The Spun Pipe Division has incorporated in March1982. It has licensed capacity of 31,200 MT per year. There are five Spinning Machines capable of producing C.I. Pipes of size 80 to 400 mm nominal diameters as per ISI1536/1979 & amended thereof . The Division obtained quality raw material (Pig Iron) from Pig Iron Division & convert the same into pipe after necessary composition. The total licensed capacity is 31,200 MT. The total capital investment is Rs.737.70 lakhs.

The Division obtains molten metal (Foundry Grade from PID and converts the same into Pies after necessary composition correction using Induction Furnaces. The method of manufacturing consists of pouring molten metal into a revolving water-cooled steel mould. Centrifugal force holds the metal in contract with the mould during solidification and a Pipe is quickly formed. Casting is followed heal treatment in an oil fired furnace, after which the Pipes pass through the various finishing operations which include inspection, hydrostatic testing, cleaning and between coating.

3.1 MEANING OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL

The effectiveness of staffing functions needs to be ascertained by evaluation the performance of employees in terms of the job requirement. Performance appraisal or employee appraisal is the systematic process of measuring and evaluating employees with respect to their performance on the job and their potential for development. Although performance appraisal if often described as merit rating, strictly speaking, rating is only one form of personnel evaluation. Performance appraisal is a more observations, records and evaluation (Dale Yeder). comprehensive process which combines formal rating with supplementary

and progress of an employee or of a group of employees on a given job and his potential for future development.

According to FLIPPO performance appraisal is the systematic, periodic and an impartial rating of an employees excellence in matters pertaining to his present job and his potential for a better job

3.2 IMPORTANCE AND PURPOSE OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL Performance appraisal has been considered as a most significant and indispensible tool for an organization, for the information it provides is highly useful in making decisions regarding various personal aspects such as promotions and merit increases. Performance measures also link information gathering and decision making processes which provides a basis for judging the effectiveness of personnel sub-divisions such as recruiting, selection, training and compensation. Below are given views of some experts which will bring out the importance and purpose of PA. According to Barret, PA is concerned mainly with three things. i. Administrative decisions i.e. promotion, transfer and allocation of financial

ii. Employee development i.e. identification of training and development

iii. Personnel research i.e. generation of manpower information besides salary

Mc Gregor says: Formal performance appraisal plans are designed to meet three needs, one of the organization and the other two of the individual, namely i. This provides systematic judgment to back up salary increases, transfer, demotion or termination. ii. They are means of telling a subordinate how he is doing and suggesting changes needed in his behavior, attitude, skills or work knowledge. They let him know where he stands with the boss. iii. They are used as a base for coaching and counseling the individual by the superior.

3.5 METHODS OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL


Several methods and techniques of appraisal are available for

measurement of the performance of an employee. The methods and scales differ for obvious reasons. First, they differ in the source of traits or qualities to be appraised. The qualities may differ because of differences in job requirements, statistical requirements and the opinions of the management. Second, they differ because of the different kinds of workers who are being rated, viz., factory workers, executives or salesmen. Third, the variations may be caused by the degree of precision attempted in an weightings for various traits. evaluation. Finally, they may differ because of the methods used to obtain

1. Confidential Report & Essay Evaluation:


In this method the assessor writes a brief essay providing an assessment of the strengths, weaknesses and potential of the subject. Factors to be considered while preparing the essay: Job Knowledge & potential of employee Employees understanding of companys policies, objectives etc. Employees relations with coworkers & superiors

Attitudes & perceptions of employee in general.

2. Critical Incident Method:

In case of critical incident method supervisor keeps log of particularly good & poor examples of work behaviors. A panel of judges evaluates the the latters performance, using incidents as examples. collection of potential critical incidents. Supervisor & subordinate discuss

3. Checklist:
In checklist method evaluator uses a list of behavioral descriptions & checks off those that apply to employee or gives Yes/No responses. Checklist scored according to the weights assigned. The final rating of the employee is taken as the average of the scale values of all statements that the rater has checked.

Employees general planning, organizing & controlling abilities.

4. Forced Choice Rating:


In the form of forced choice rating several sets of pair phrases, two of which may be positive & two negative is used. The rater needs to indicate which of the four phrases is the most & least descriptive of a particular worker. Items are grounded in such a way that the rater cannot easily judge which statements apply to the most effective employee.

5. Graphic Rating:
The appraise lists a number of traits and a range of performance values for score that best describes the subordinates performance for each trait.

BARS method combines the benefits of narrative critical incidents & quantitative ratings by anchoring a quantified scale with specific narrative examples of good & poor performance. Five Steps of developing BARS 1. Generate critical incidents 2. Develop performance dimensions 3. Reallocate incidents 4. Scale the incidents 5. Develop a final instrument

7. Ranking Method:
This is simplest of all methods. The appraisal consists of ranking employees as more or less efficient by inter-personal comparison of overall qualities. This method is conveniently adopted if the number of employees is small and work performance is measurable. Thus ranking involves subjective appraisal of employees without any common standard.

8. Paired Comparison:
In paired comparison method each employee is compared with every
weaker (-) member of the pair. Each employee is assigned a summary

ranking based on the number of superior scores achieved.

In MBO the manager requires to set specific measurable goals with each employee and then periodically discuss progress toward these goals. Six Steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Benefits of Performance appraisal


For the organization: The organization comes to know the true position of the employees working capacities and the problems they face while working in the organization. This performance appraisal system also acts as a motivating factor for the employees, which helps the organization to get better results. For the appraise: The appraise fells themselves an important part of the organization, they get a platform to express their ideas. The employee comes to know the truth about:

A group, consisting of his senior, peers and subordinates, can do appraisal, whoever is rating; he should be trained and impartial. In most of the organizations the ratings is done by his immediate superior who is considered the best person to understand his subordinates strengths and weaknesses.

THE HOW OF APPRAISAL Under this, the organization must decide what different kinds of methods are available and which of these may be used for performance appraisal. On the basis of comparative advantages and needs of an organization; the method of appraisal is decided. The performance appraisal process at the companies has been stated by The Corporation as consisting of four inter-related steps. manager (evaluator) The first step was to establish a common understanding between the disadvantages, the nature and philosophy of management and the It is usually done at work place or office of the

expectations; mainly, the work to be accomplished and how that work was to be evaluated. The second step was an ongoing assessment progress against work expectation. Provisions were made for the regular feedback of information to clarify and modify the goals and expectations, to correct unacceptable performance before it was too late, and to reward superior performance with proper praise and recognition. Step three was the formal documentation of performance through the completion of a performance and development appraisal form appropriate to the job family.

The final step being the formal performance and development appraisal discussion, based on the completed appraisal form and ending in the construction of a Development Plan. Also noted was that The Corporation considered the performance appraisal process to have been within the larger content of the other performance related processes of work planning and salary action. Reasons for Performance Appraisal Failures Where performance appraisal fails to work as well as it should, major contributing reason. Opposition may be based on political effectiveness of the appraisal process.

It is crucial that top management believe in the value of appraisal and express their visible commitment to it. Top managers are powerful role models for other managers and employees.

Employee Participation Employees should participate with their supervisors in the creation of their own performance goals and development plans. Mutual agreement is a key to success. A plan wherein the employee feels some degree of ownership is more likely to be accepted than one that is imposed. This does not mean that employees do not desire guidance from their supervisor; indeed they very much do.

Performance Management One of the most common mistakes in the practice of

performance appraisal is to perceive appraisal as an isolated event rather than an ongoing process. Employees generally require more feedback, and more

frequently, than can be provided in an annual appraisal. While it may not be necessary to conduct full appraisal sessions more than once or twice a year, performance management should be viewed as an ongoing process.

Frequent mini-appraisals and feedback sessions will help ensure encouragement they need. Of course many supervisors complain they don't have the time to provide this sort of ongoing feedback. This is hardly likely. What supervisors really mean when they say this is that the supervision and development of subordinates is not as high a priority as certain other tasks.

and values that it has instilled in its supervisory ranks. After all, supervisors who haven't got time to monitor and facilitate the performance of their subordinates are like chefs who haven't got time to cook, or dentists who are too busy to look at teeth. It just doesn't make sense. If appraisal is viewed as an isolated event, it is only natural that supervisors will come to view their responsibilities in the same way. Just as worrying, employees may come to see their own effort and commitment levels as something that needs a bit of a polish up in the month or two preceding appraisals.

Performance appraisals are important for staff motivation, attitude and behavior development, communicating and aligning individual and organizational aims, and fostering positive relationships between management and staff. Performance appraisals provide a formal, recorded, regular review of an individual's performance, and a plan for future development. Job performance appraisals - in whatever form they take - are therefore vital for managing the performance of people and organizations.

Managers and appraisee commonly dislike appraisals and try to consuming. The process is seen as a difficult administrative chore and emotionally challenging. The annual appraisal is maybe the only time since last year that the two people have sat down together for a meaningful one-to-one discussion. No wonder then that appraisals are stressful - which then defeats the whole purpose.

Put off discussions and of course they loom very large. So don't wait for the annual appraisal to sit down and talk. The boss or appraise can instigate this. If you are an employee with a shy boss, then take the lead. If you are a boss who rarely sits down and talks with people - or whose people are not used to talking with their boss - then set about relaxing the atmosphere and improving relationships. Appraisals (and work) all tend to be easier when people communicate well and know each other.

The form meant for workers and clerical/supervisory staffs are simple one, where as the form meant for executives has been designed to assess the performance and managerial potentiality while giving the executives the opportunity to record his/her self appraisal on the basis of specific achievements made by them during the year. Since the performance appraisal report meant for executives requires more care and diligence. The same has described in detail as follows: The form has three parts: Parts I Self appraisal to be recorded by appraise. Part II To be filled by Reporting Authority. Part III Has 17 factors/attributes.

For performance assessment, Part II is divided into two groups. I. II. Performance factors from ii to vi. Managerial Potential factors from vii to xiv.

Factor I is information regarding the duties assigned to the executive, factor xv is the comment on self appraisal recorded by appraise, and factor xvii is overall rating. Each factor has to be weighted in respect of its importance and overall assessment is to be decided at factor xvii. Factor iv to xii are to be assessed on a 6 point scale and the relevant scale point is to be tick marked. Factor xiii and xiv are in questionnaire form to be tick marked at appropriate column.
